Exhibit 10.1

AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of the 25th day of July, 2013, between Brightcove Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Jeremy Allaire (the “Employee”) and amends, restates and fully supersedes all prior employment agreements between the Company and the Executive including, without limitation, the employment offer letter dated December 17, 2004 and the Employment Agreement dated August 8, 2011 (collectively the “Prior Agreements”);

WHEREAS, the Company desires to continue to employ the Employee and the Employee desires to continue to be employed by the Company on the new terms and conditions contained herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. Employment.

(a) Term. The Company hereby employs the Employee and the Employee hereby accepts such employment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the provisions of Section 3. (Such period of employment shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Term”).

(b) Duties. During the Term, the Employee shall have such powers and duties as may from time to time be prescribed by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), or the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Employee may serve on other boards of directors and engage in other business activities with the prior written approval of the Board, and he may engage in religious, charitable or other community activities as long as such services and activities do not interfere with the Employee’s performance of his duties to the Company as provided in this Agreement.

2. Compensation and Related Matters.

(a) Base Salary. During the Term, the Employee’s initial annual base salary shall be $150,000. The Employee’s base salary may be redetermined annually by the Board or the Compensation Committee. The base salary in effect at any given time is referred to herein as “Base Salary.” The Base Salary shall be payable in a manner that is consistent with the Company’s usual payroll practices for senior Employees.

(b) Incentive Compensation. During the Term, the Employee shall be eligible to receive cash incentive compensation as determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee from time to time. The Employee’s target annual incentive compensation shall be 45 percent of his Base Salary. To earn incentive compensation, the Employee must be employed by the Company on the last day of the period on which such incentive compensation is measured.


(c) Expenses. The Employee shall be entitled to receive reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by him during the Term in performing services hereunder, in accordance with the policies and procedures then in effect and established by the Company for its senior Employee officers.

(d) Other Benefits. During the Term, the Employee shall be entitled to continue to participate in or receive benefits under the Company’s Employee Benefit Plans in effect on the date hereof, subject to the terms, conditions and eligibility requirements of those plans and programs. As used herein, the term “Employee Benefit Plans” includes, without limitation, each pension and retirement plan; supplemental pension, retirement and deferred compensation plan; savings and profit-sharing plan; stock ownership plan; stock purchase plan; stock option plan; life insurance plan; medical insurance plan; disability plan; and health and accident plan or arrangement established and maintained by the Company on the date hereof for employees of the same status within the hierarchy of the Company.

(e) Place of Performance. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Employee and the Company, the Employee shall perform his duties for the Company from the headquarters of the Company, 290 Congress Street, 4th Floor, Boston, MA 02210 provided, however, Employee shall be required to travel to the extent reasonably required to perform his job duties.

3. Termination. The Employee’s employment hereunder may be terminated without any breach of this Agreement under the following circumstances:

(a) Death. The Employee’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon his death.

(b) Disability. The Company may terminate the Employee’s employment if he is disabled and unable to perform the essential functions of the Employee’s then existing position or positions under this Agreement with or without reasonable accommodation for a period of 180 days (which need not be consecutive) in any 12 month period. Nothing in this Section 3(b) shall be construed to waive the Employee’s rights, if any, under existing law including, without limitation, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C. §2601 et seq. and the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §12101 et seq.

(c) Termination by Company for Cause. The Company may terminate the Employee’s employment hereunder for Cause by a vote of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean: (i) conduct by the Employee constituting an act of misconduct in connection with the performance of his duties, including, without limitation, misappropriation of funds or property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates other than the occasional, customary and de minimis use of Company property for personal purposes; (ii) the commission by the Employee of any felony or a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, deceit, dishonesty or fraud, or any conduct by the Employee that would reasonably be expected to result in injury or reputational harm to the Company or any of its subsidiaries and affiliates if he were retained in his position; (iii) continued non-performance by the Employee of his duties hereunder (other than by reason of the Employee’s physical or mental illness, incapacity or disability) which has continued for more than 30 days following written notice of such non-performance from the Board; (iv) a

 

2


breach by the Employee of any of the provisions contained in Section 7 of this Agreement; (v) a violation by the Employee of the Company’s written employment policies; or (vi) failure to cooperate with a bona fide internal investigation or an investigation by regulatory or law enforcement authorities, after being instructed by the Company to cooperate, or the destruction or failure to preserve documents or other materials known to be relevant to such investigation or the inducement of others to fail to cooperate or to produce documents or other materials in connection with such investigation.

(d) Termination Without Cause. The Company may terminate the Employee’s employment hereunder at any time without Cause. Any termination by the Company of the Employee’s employment under this Agreement which does not constitute a termination for Cause under Section 3(c) and does not result from the death or disability of the Employee under Section 3(a) or (b) shall be deemed a termination without Cause.

(e) Termination by the Employee. The Employee may terminate his employment hereunder at any time for any reason upon thirty (30) days written notice.

(f) Notice of Termination. Except for termination as specified in Section 3(a), any termination of the Employee’s employment by the Company or any such termination by the Employee shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon.

(g) Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” shall mean: (i) if the Employee’s employment is terminated by his death, the date of his death; (ii) if the Employee’s employment is terminated on account of disability under Section 3(b) or by the Company for Cause under Section 3(c) or by the Company without Cause under Section 3(d), the date on which a Notice of Termination is given; and (iii) if the Employee’s employment is terminated by the Employee under Section 3(e), 30 days after the date on which a Notice of Termination is given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Employee gives a Notice of Termination to the Company, the Company may unilaterally accelerate the Date of Termination and such acceleration shall not result in a termination by the Company for purposes of this Agreement.

(h) Resignation on Termination. On the Date of Termination, the Employee shall resign from all positions with the Company and its subsidiaries. In addition, if the Employee is then serving as a member of the Board or the Board of Directors of a subsidiary, the Employee shall tender his resignation from such directorship(s) on the Date of Termination.

4. Compensation Upon Termination.

(a) Termination Generally. If the Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, the Company shall pay or provide to the Employee (or to his authorized representative or estate) any earned but unpaid base salary, incentive compensation earned and payable but not yet paid, unpaid expense reimbursements and accrued but unused vacation (the “Accrued Benefit”) on or before the time required by law but in no event more than 30 days after the Employee’s Date of Termination.

 

3


(b) Termination by the Company Without Cause. If the Employee’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause as provided in Section 3(d), then the Company shall, through the Date of Termination, pay the Employee his Accrued Benefit. In addition, subject to the Employee signing a separation agreement that includes a general release of claims in favor of the Company and related persons and entities in a form and manner satisfactory to the Company (the “Release”) and, if applicable, the expiration of the seven-day revocation period for the Release within 60 days after the Date of Termination:

(i) the Company shall pay the Employee an amount equal to the sum of (A) one times the Employee’s Base Salary and (B) one times the Employee’s target incentive compensation for the then current fiscal year (the “Severance Amount”). The Severance Amount shall be paid out in substantially equal installments in accordance with the Company’s payroll practice over twelve (12) months commencing within 60 days after the Date of Termination; provided, however, that if the 60-day period begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year, the Severance Amount shall begin to be paid in the second calendar year. Solely for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each installment payment is considered a separate payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Employee breaches any of the provisions contained in Section 7 of this Agreement, all payments of the Severance Amount shall immediately cease; and

(ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any applicable option agreement or stock-based award agreement, the vesting schedule for stock options and other stock-based awards held by the Employee as of the Date of Termination shall immediately accelerate by twenty five percent (25%) and such accelerated awards shall become fully exercisable, vested and/or nonforfeitable as of the Date of Termination;

(iii) if the Employee was participating in the Company’s group health plan immediately prior to the Date of Termination, then the Company shall pay to the Employee a single lump sum cash payment equal to twelve (12) months of monthly employer contributions that the Company would have made to provide health insurance to the Employee if the Employee had remained employed by the Company.

5. Change in Control Payment. The provisions of this Section 5 set forth certain additional agreements reached between the Employee and the Company regarding the Employee’s rights and obligations upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Company. These provisions are intended to assure and encourage in advance the Employee’s continued attention and dedication to his assigned duties and his objectivity during the pendency and after the occurrence of any such event. These provisions shall apply in lieu of, and expressly supersede, the provisions of Section 4(b) regarding severance pay and benefits if a termination of employment occurs on or within 12 months after the occurrence of a Change in Control, provided that such Change in Control occurs during the Employee’s employment. These provisions shall terminate and be of no further force or effect beginning twelve (12) months after the occurrence of a Change in Control.

 

4


(a) Change in Control.

(i) Upon a Change in Control of the Company, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any applicable option agreement or stock-based award agreement, the vesting schedule for stock options and other stock-based awards held by the Employee as of the date of such Change in Control shall immediately accelerate by one hundred percent (100%) and such accelerated awards become fully exercisable, vested and/or nonforfeitable as of the date of such Change in Control.

(ii) In addition, if within twelve (12) months after a Change in Control, the Employee’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause as provided in Section 3(d) then, subject to the Employee signing a Release and the expiration of the seven-day revocation period for the Release within 60 days after the Date of Termination:

(A) the Company shall pay the Employee an amount equal to the sum of (A) one times the Employee’s Base Salary and (B) one times the Employee’s incentive compensation for the then current fiscal year (the “CIC Amount”). The CIC Amount shall be paid within 60 days after the Date of Termination in a lump sum in cash provided that if such 60-day period begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year, the CIC Amount shall be paid in the second calendar year; and provided further, that if the Change in Control does not constitute a “change in ownership or effective control” of the Company or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of the Company for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, the CIC Amount shall be paid at the same time and on the same schedule as provided in Section 4(b) (i) with respect to the Severance Amount; and

(B) if the Employee was participating in the Company’s group health plan immediately prior to the Date of Termination, then the Company shall pay to the Employee a single lump sum cash payment equal to twelve (12) months of monthly employer contributions that the Company would have made to provide health insurance to the Employee if the Employee had remained employed by the Company.

(b) Additional Limitation.

(i) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that the amount of any compensation payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Employee, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, calculated in a manner consistent with Section 280G of the Code and the applicable regulations thereunder (the “Payments”), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, the following provisions shall apply:

(A) If the Payments, reduced by the sum of (1) the Excise Tax and (2) the total of the Federal, state, and local income and employment taxes payable by the Employee on the amount of the Payments which are in excess of

 

5


the Threshold Amount, are greater than or equal to the Threshold Amount, the Employee shall be entitled to the full benefits payable under this Agreement.

(B) If the Threshold Amount is less than (x) the Payments, but greater than (y) the Payments reduced by the sum of (1) the Excise Tax and (2) the total of the Federal, state, and local income and employment taxes on the amount of the Payments which are in excess of the Threshold Amount, then the Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the extent necessary so that the sum of all Payments shall not exceed the Threshold Amount. In such event, the Payments shall be reduced in the following order: (1) cash payments not subject to Section 409A of the Code; (2) cash payments subject to Section 409A of the Code; (3) equity-based payments and acceleration; and (4) non-cash forms of benefits. To the extent any payment is to be made over time (e.g., in installments, etc.), then the payments shall be reduced in reverse chronological order.

(ii) The determination as to which of the alternative provisions of Section 5(b) shall apply to the Employee shall be made the Accounting Firm, which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Employee within 15 business days of the Date of Termination, if applicable, or at such earlier time as is reasonably requested by the Company or the Employee. For purposes of determining which of the alternative provisions of Section 5(b) shall apply, the Employee shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation applicable to individuals for the calendar year in which the determination is to be made, and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rates of individual taxation in the state and locality of the Employee’s residence on the Date of Termination, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Employee.

(c) Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(i) “Change in Control” shall mean any of the following:

(A) the date any “person,” as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”) (other than the Company, any of its subsidiaries, or any trustee, fiduciary or other person or entity holding securities under any employee benefit plan or trust of the Company or any of its subsidiaries), together with all “affiliates” and “associates” (as such terms are defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Act) of such person, shall become the “beneficial owner” (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities having the right to vote in an election of the Board (“Voting Securities”) (in such case other than as a result of an acquisition of securities directly from the Company); or

 

6


(B) the date a majority of the members of the Board is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Board before the date of the appointment or election; or

(C) the consummation of (A) any consolidation or merger of the Company where the stockholders of the Company, immediately prior to the consolidation or merger, would not, immediately after the consolidation or merger, beneficially own (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act), directly or indirectly, shares representing in the aggregate more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting shares of the Company issuing cash or securities in the consolidation or merger (or of its ultimate parent corporation, if any), or (B) any sale or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of transactions contemplated or arranged by any party as a single plan) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of the foregoing clause (i) solely as the result of an acquisition of securities by the Company which, by reducing the number of shares of Voting Securities outstanding, increases the proportionate number of Voting Securities beneficially owned by any person to fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of all of the then outstanding Voting Securities; provided, however, that if any person referred to in this sentence shall thereafter become the beneficial owner of any additional shares of Voting Securities (other than pursuant to a stock split, stock dividend, or similar transaction or as a result of an acquisition of securities directly from the Company) and immediately thereafter beneficially owns fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of all of the then outstanding Voting Securities, then a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of the foregoing clause (i).

6. Section 409A.

(a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if at the time of the Employee’s separation from service within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Company determines that the Employee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then to the extent any payment or benefit that the Employee becomes entitled to under this Agreement on account of the Employee’s separation from service would be considered deferred compensation subject to the 20 percent additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such payment shall not be payable and such benefit shall not be provided until the date that is the earlier of (A) six months and one day after the Employee’s separation from service, or (B) the Employee’s death. If any such delayed cash payment is otherwise payable on an installment basis, the first payment shall include a catch-up payment covering amounts that would otherwise have been paid during the six-month period but for the application of this provision, and the balance of the installments shall be payable in accordance with their original schedule.

(b) All in-kind benefits provided and expenses eligible for reimbursement under this Agreement shall be provided by the Company or incurred by the Employee during the

 

7


time periods set forth in this Agreement. All reimbursements shall be paid as soon as administratively practicable, but in no event shall any reimbursement be paid after the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of in-kind benefits provided or reimbursable expenses incurred in one taxable year shall not affect the in-kind benefits to be provided or the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year. Such right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(c) To the extent that any payment or benefit described in this Agreement constitutes “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, and to the extent that such payment or benefit is payable upon the Employee’s termination of employment, then such payments or benefits shall be payable only upon the Employee’s “separation from service.” The determination of whether and when a separation from service has occurred shall be made in accordance with the presumptions set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h).

(d) The parties intend that this Agreement will be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be read in such a manner so that all payments hereunder comply with Section 409A of the Code. The parties agree that this Agreement may be amended, as reasonably requested by either party, and as may be necessary to fully comply with Section 409A of the Code and all related rules and regulations in order to preserve the payments and benefits provided hereunder without additional cost to either party.

(e) The Company makes no representation or warranty and shall have no liability to the Employee or any other person if any provisions of this Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code but do not satisfy an exemption from, or the conditions of, such Section.

7. Confidential Information, Noncompetition and Cooperation.

(a) The Employee agrees to continue to comply with and hereby reaffirms his obligations under the Employee Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation, Confidentiality and Assignment Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A (“Proprietary Information Agreement”), the terms of which are hereby incorporated by reference into Section 7 of this Agreement.

(b) Confidentiality. The Employee understands and agrees that the Employee’s employment creates a relationship of confidence and trust between the Employee and the Company with respect to all Confidential Information. At all times, both during the Employee’s employment with the Company and after its termination, the Employee will keep in confidence and trust all such Confidential Information, and will not use or disclose any such Confidential Information without the written consent of the Company, except as may be necessary in the ordinary course of performing the Employee’s duties to the Company.

(c) Documents, Records, etc. All documents, records, data, apparatus, equipment and other physical property, whether or not pertaining to Confidential Information,

 

8


which are furnished to the Employee by the Company or are produced by the Employee in connection with the Employee’s employment will be and remain the sole property of the Company. The Employee will return to the Company all such materials and property as and when requested by the Company. In any event, the Employee will return all such materials and property immediately upon termination of the Employee’s employment for any reason. The Employee will not retain with the Employee any such material or property or any copies thereof after such termination.

(d) Third-Party Agreements and Rights. The Employee hereby confirms that the Employee is not bound by the terms of any agreement with any previous employer or other party which restricts in any way the Employee’s use or disclosure of information or the Employee’s engagement in any business. The Employee represents to the Company that the Employee’s execution of this Agreement, the Employee’s employment with the Company and the performance of the Employee’s proposed duties for the Company will not violate any obligations the Employee may have to any such previous employer or other party. In the Employee’s work for the Company, the Employee will not disclose or make use of any information in violation of any agreements with or rights of any such previous employer or other party, and the Employee will not bring to the premises of the Company any copies or other tangible embodiments of non-public information belonging to or obtained from any such previous employment or other party.

(e) Litigation and Regulatory Cooperation. During and after the Employee’s employment, the Employee shall cooperate fully with the Company in the defense or prosecution of any claims or actions now in existence or which may be brought in the future against or on behalf of the Company which relate to events or occurrences that transpired while the Employee was employed by the Company. The Employee’s full cooperation in connection with such claims or actions shall include, but not be limited to, being available to meet with counsel to prepare for discovery or trial and to act as a witness on behalf of the Company at mutually convenient times. During and after the Employee’s employment, the Employee also shall cooperate fully with the Company in connection with any investigation or review of any federal, state or local regulatory authority as any such investigation or review relates to events or occurrences that transpired while the Employee was employed by the Company. The Company shall reimburse the Employee for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Employee’s performance of obligations pursuant to this Section 7(e).

(f) Injunction. The Employee agrees that it would be difficult to measure any damages caused to the Company which might result from any breach by the Employee of the promises set forth in this Section 7, and that in any event money damages would be an inadequate remedy for any such breach. Accordingly, the Employee agrees that if the Employee breaches, or proposes to breach, any portion of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to all other remedies that it may have, to an injunction or other appropriate equitable relief to restrain any such breach without showing or proving any actual damage to the Company.

8. Consent to Jurisdiction. The parties hereby consent to the jurisdiction of the Superior Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. Accordingly, with respect to any such court action, the Employee

 

9


(a) submits to the personal jurisdiction of such courts; (b) consents to service of process; and (c) waives any other requirement (whether imposed by statute, rule of court, or otherwise) with respect to personal jurisdiction or service of process.

9. Integration. This Agreement, including Exhibits A and B attached hereto, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements between the parties concerning such subject matter including, without limitation, the Prior Agreements.

10. Withholding; Taxes. All payments made by the Company to the Employee under this Agreement shall be net of any tax or other amounts required to be withheld by the Company under applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require the Company to make any payments to compensate you for any adverse tax effect associated with any payments or benefits or for any deduction or withholding from any payment or benefit.

11. Successor to the Employee. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Employee’s personal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. In the event of the Employee’s death after his termination of employment but prior to the completion by the Company of all payments due him under this Agreement, the Company shall continue such payments to the Employee’s beneficiary designated in writing to the Company prior to his death (or to his estate, if the Employee fails to make such designation).

12. Enforceability. If any portion or provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any portion or provision of any section of this Agreement) shall to any extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

13. Survival. The provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement and/or the termination of the Employee’s employment to the extent necessary to effectuate the terms contained herein.

14. Waiver. No waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of any party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.

15. Notices. Any notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for by this Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing and delivered in person or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the Employee at the last address the Employee has filed in writing with the Company or, in the case of the Company, at its main offices, attention of the Board.

 

10


16. Amendment; Amended Terms. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument signed by the Employee and by a duly authorized representative of the Company.

17. Governing Law.

4. Nondisclosure Obligation: I shall not at any time, whether during or after the termination of my employment (for any reason whatsoever), reveal to any person or entity any Confidential Information of the Company or of any third parties which the Company is under an obligation to keep confidential, except to employees of the Company who need to know such information for the purposes of their employment, or as otherwise authorized by the Company in writing. “Confidential Information” includes, but is not limited to, confidential and/or proprietary information or trade secrets concerning the business, organization or finances of the Company, including but not limited to, research and development activities, product designs, prototypes and technical specifications, show how and know how, business, financial, sales and/or marketing plans and strategies, pricing and costing policies, customer and suppliers lists and related information,

5. Company Documentation: Furthermore, I agree that during my employment I shall maintain for the benefit of the Company, and shall not make, use or permit to be used, any Company Documentation otherwise than for the benefit of the Company. “Company Documentation” includes, but is not limited to, notes memoranda, reports, lists, records, drawings, sketches, specifications, software programs, data documentation or other materials of any nature and in any form, whether written, printed or in digital format or otherwise relating to any matter within the scope of the business of the Company or concerning any of its dealings or affairs, whether or not they contain or embody any Confidential Information or any Developments (as hereinafter defined).

Immediately upon the termination of my employment (or earlier, if requested by the Company) I shall deliver all Company Documentation and Confidential Information in my possession, and all copies thereof, to the Company, at its main office.

6. Assignment of Inventions:

(a) If at any time or times during my employment, I shall (either alone or with others) make, conceive, create, discover, invent or reduce to practice any Development that: (i) relates to the business of the Company or any customer of or supplier to the Company or any of the products or services being developed, manufactured or sold by the Company or which may be used in relation therewith; or (ii) results from tasks assigned to me by the Company or work performed by me for the Company; or (iii) results from the use of Confidential Information; or (iv) results from the use of premises or personal property (whether tangible or intangible) owned, leased or contracted for by the Company, then all such Developments and the benefits thereof are and shall immediately become the sole and absolute property of the Company and its assigns, as works made for hire or otherwise. The term “Development” shall include, but not be limited to, any invention, modification, discovery, design, development, improvement, process, software program, work of authorship, documentation, formula, data, technique, know-how, trade secret or intellectual property right whatsoever or any interest therein (whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright, trademark or similar statutes (including but not limited to the Semiconductor Chip Protection Act) or subject to analogous protection). I shall promptly disclose to the Company (or any persons designated by it) each Development. I hereby assign all rights (including, but not limited to, rights to inventions, patentable subject matter, copyrights and trademarks) I may have or may acquire in the Developments and all benefits and/or rights resulting therefrom to the Company and its assigns without further compensation and shall communicate, without cost or delay, and without disclosing to others, all available information relating thereto (with all necessary plans and models) to the Company.

(b) I represent that the Developments identified in the Appendix attached hereto, if any, comprise all the Developments that I have made or conceived prior to my employment by the Company, which Developments are excluded from this Agreement. I understand that it is only necessary to list the title of such Developments and the purpose thereof, but not details of the Development itself. IF THERE ARE ANY SUCH DEVELOPMENTS TO BE EXCLUDED, THE

 

2


UNDERSIGNED SHOULD INITIAL HERE; OTHERWISE IT WILL BE DEEMED THAT THERE ARE NO SUCH EXCLUSIONS.                 . I understand and agree that if I incorporate into any Company product, process or machine any Developments set forth on the Appendix or otherwise made, conceived or reduced to practice by me prior to my employment with the Company, the Company is hereby granted and shall have a nonexclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, world-wide license to make, have made, modify, use and sell any such Development as part of or in connection with such product, process or machine.

(c) I shall, during my employment and at any time thereafter, at the request and cost of the Company, promptly sign, execute, make and do all such deeds, documents, acts and things as the Company and its duly authorized officers may reasonably require: (i) to apply for, obtain, register and vest in the name of the Company alone (unless the Company otherwise directs) patents, copyrights, trademarks or other analogous protection in any country throughout the world relating to a Development and when so obtained or vested to renew and restore the same; and (ii) to defend any judicial, opposition or other proceedings in respect of such applications and any judicial, opposition or other proceeding, petition or application for revocation of any such patent, copyright, trademark or other analogous protection.

(d) If the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure my signature on any application for patent, copyright, trademark or other analogous registration or other documents regarding any legal protection relating to a Development, whether because of my physical or mental incapacity or for any other reason whatsoever, I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as my agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and in my behalf and stead to execute and file any such application or applications or other documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of patent, copyright or trademark registrations or any other legal protection thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me.

7. Acknowledgements/Remedies Upon Breach: I agree that the Company’s Confidential Information, customer goodwill and workforce are vital to the success of the Company’s business and have been or will be developed or attained by great efforts and expense to the Company. I acknowledge that as of the date of this Agreement and continuing thereafter, I will be provided by the Company with Confidential Information, including trade secrets, and I recognize the importance of protecting the Company’s rights in and to such Confidential Information and goodwill that the Company has developed or will develop with its customers. I further agree that the restrictions set forth in this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s Confidential Information, its customer goodwill and its workforce. I agree that any breach of this Agreement by me will cause irreparable damage to the Company and that in the event of such breach or threatened breach the Company shall have, in addition to any and all remedies of law, the right to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent or cease the violation of my obligations hereunder.

8. Absence of Conflicting Agreements: I understand that the Company does not desire to acquire from me any trade secrets, know how or confidential business information that I may have acquired from others. I represent that I will not use such information in the performance of my duties for the Company and will not bring any such information onto Company premises. I also represent that I am not bound by any agreement or any other existing or previous business relationship which

 

3


conflicts with or prevents the full performance of my duties and obligations to the Company during the course of employment.

9. Notification: In the event that my employment with the Company terminates for any reason, I hereby consent to notification by the Company to my new employer or any new entity to which I may provide services about my rights and obligations under this Agreement.

10. Conflict of Interest Guidelines: I hereby agree to comply with the Company’s conflict of interest guidelines attached hereto as Appendix B.

11. Severability and Reformation: I hereby agree that each provision herein shall be treated as a separate and independent clause, and the unenforceability of any clause shall in no way impair the enforceability of any of the other clauses of the Agreement. Moreover, if one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to scope, activity, subject or otherwise so as to be unenforceable at law, such provision or provisions shall be construed by the appropriate judicial body by limiting or reducing it or them, so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with the applicable law as it shall then appear. I hereby further agree that the language of all parts of this Agreement shall in all cases be construed as a whole according to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against either of the parties.

12. At-Will Employment: I understand that neither this Agreement nor any other document I have signed regarding my employment with the Company constitutes an express or implied employment contract and that my employment with the Company is on an “at-will” basis. Accordingly, I understand that either the Company or I may terminate my employment at any time, for any or no reason, with or without prior notice.

13. Continued Effect. I agree and understand that any change or changes in my position, duties, salary, compensation or other terms and conditions of employment with the Company will in no manner affect the validity, enforceability or scope of this Agreement, and that I am entering into this Agreement in consideration for my employment with the Company, which employment includes any such changes that may occur after the date hereof.

14. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and me relating to the subject matter herein and merges and supersedes all prior discussions, representations, understandings and agreements by and between us.

15. Miscellaneous: Any amendment to or modification of this Agreement, or any waiver of any provision hereof, shall be in writing and signed by the Company. Any waiver by the Company of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of such provision or any other provision hereof. The captions of this Agreement are for reference only and do not define, limit or affect the scope of any section of this Agreement. My obligations under this Agreement shall survive the termination of my employment regardless of the reason for or manner of such termination and shall be binding upon my heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives. The Company shall have the right to assign this Agreement to its successors and assigns, and all covenants and agreements hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by said successors or assigns. I acknowledge and agree that this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of Massachusetts without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof and any claims or legal actions by one party against the other shall be commenced and maintained in any state or

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements concerning our financial guidance for the third fiscal quarter of 2013 and the full year of 2013, our position to execute on our growth strategy, and our ability to penetrate our market and expand our leadership position. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts, and statements identified by words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates” or words of similar meaning. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views about our plans, intentions, expectations, strategies and prospects, which are based on the information currently available to us and on assumptions we have made. Although we believe that our plans, intentions, expectations, strategies and prospects as reflected in or suggested by those forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that the plans, intentions, expectations or strategies will be attained or achieved. Furthermore, actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements and will be affected by a variety of risks and factors that are beyond our control including, without limitation, risks associated with our history of losses, our limited operating history, expectations regarding the widespread adoption of customer demand for our Video Cloud and Zencoder products, our ability to expand the sales of our products to customers located outside the U.S., keeping up with the rapid technological change required to remain competitive in our industry, our ability to retain existing customers, our ability to manage our growth effectively and successfully recruit additional highly-qualified personnel, the price volatility of our common stock, and other risks set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as updated by our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our other SEC filings. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this document as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Brightcove has provided in this release the non-GAAP financial measures of non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders. Brightcove uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating Brightcove’s ongoing operational performance. Brightcove believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing its financial results with other companies in Brightcove’s industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. As noted, the non-GAAP financial results discussed above exclude stock-based compensation expense, the amortization of acquired intangible assets, merger-related expenses, and the accretion of dividends on redeemable convertible preferred stock.

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. As previously mentioned, a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release. The Company’s earnings press releases containing such non-GAAP reconciliations can be found on the Investors section of the Company’s web site at http://www.brightcove.com.
